|
<p>Morning light was dawning o’er the distant hills,<br>
|
|
Banished was the midnight gloom;<br>
|
|
Silently the angels clad in bright array<br>
|
|
Came to guard the dear Redeemer’s tomb.<br>
|
|
Soldiers were affrighted and in terror fled,<br>
|
|
While the angels roll the stone away.<br>
|
|
Then with joy proclaiming, “Christ the Lord is ris’n”<br>
|
|
“See the place where once the Savior lay.”</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Joy dispels our sorrow—pleasures banish pain—<br>
|
|
Earth awakes from winter’s gloom;<br>
|
|
Easter anthems ringing tell the joyful news<br>
|
|
“Christ is risen from the tomb.”</p>
|
|
<p>Loving ones who sought Him at the break of day,<br>
|
|
Found the angels waiting there;<br>
|
|
Joy dispelled their sorrow—fear gave way to faith—<br>
|
|
Hope succeeded all their deep despair.<br>
|
|
For the angels told them, “Jesus is not here,”<br>
|
|
“But had surely risen as He said.”<br>
|
|
Then with eager footsteps joyfully they tell<br>
|
|
How that Christ had risen from the dead.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Easter tells its gladness all the year around—<br>
|
|
Happy birds their tribute bring;<br>
|
|
Fragrant flowers blooming after winter days<br>
|
|
Speak to us the joys of coming spring.<br>
|
|
Earthly pleasures vanish, flowers soon shall fade,<br>
|
|
But the joy of Easter shall endure.<br>
|
|
Hope of resurrection never shall grow dim<br>
|
|
While the Word of God abideth sure.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
